This week I learned past tense. It is in some ways harder than present continuous, but it is definitely helpful to know and expand my language ability. Additionally, I am learning how to negate the past tense. This is done, by an affix, similar to negating the present continuous tense. I am continuing to learn new verbs about everyday activities as well as non-action verbs (to like). Verbs always go at the end of sentences in Turkish as it follows the OSV order. Next semester I will continue working on present continuous, past tense, and will learn future tense.
The resource I have been using throughout this course with my language partner is "Istanbul: Istanbul Turkish for Foreigners Course Book."
